His hair is a auburn color that is shoulder length and seems to defy gravity as it sticks out in peculiar ways. His bangs go down to his jaw, encasing his left side of his face allowing to show a strong jaw and wine colored eyes.
Eyes:
Wine
Skin:
His skin is golden tan color showing that he does spend some time outdoors.
Clothing:
Mercenary outfit:
Kratos mercenary outfit is a tight fitting clothing made out of a type material that seems like leather but isn’t. His shirt is a dark purple with a collar that goes up about an inch to his jaw with purple trimming on the edges. At the collar the color is white that is from his collar bone up to the light purple trimming. At the front is a light purple cross that goes from the top of his collar down to the bottom of the shirt. In the middle of the purple cross is a small triangle hole that also appears at the middle of his collar bone joining the collar and the rest of the shirt. At the end of the horizontal line of the purple cross is golden button with a red crystal in the middle, encased in purple trimming.
At the back of the shirt are two long dark purple isosceles triangles were the point reaches down to his ankles with the same light purple edged on it. Kratos’s cape is much like the long isosceles triangle on his back but wrap around his shoulders and are the length of his waist. The cape comes up his neck encasing the collar of his shirt but also allowing an inch of space between the two. The color is a dark purple with light purple edging with the same petal flower button on his shirt near the triangle hole on his collar bone. There is also a gold button right around the armpit area of his cape. His gloves are fingerless the color of the light purple of the edgings of his clothing with the same petal button on each knuckle area. Around his arms are a type of sleeves that aren’t attached to his shirt and that begin at the base of his gloves and goes up to a few inches away from his armpits. The color is a dark purple with large white trimming around the wrist and at the other end of the sleeves.
His pants are a dark purple color with two light purple belts around his waist. Both belt’s buckle not lining up by a few inches with silver buckles. His shoes are a dark purple with a little gray in the color around the foot. In the middle of his shoes is a dark purple strip around the shoe with white soles that slightly comes up the toe. Another part of his shoes is a white strip that starts at the bottom of the shoe and comes up around his ankle encasing it and comes up half way his leg with the same two smaller belts around his waist covering the top white part of the shoes.
Judgment outfit:
Kratos’s Judgment outfit is a tight fit just like his mercenary outfit with the material seeming to be like under armor~! He has a thin full body clothing that is a dark blue color and is sleeveless. It has a collar that comes up an inch from his jaw and with the legging coming down to his ankles. On top of the torso is a kind of shirt that has sleeves coming down to his waist but has a v cut from down and up that stops at the middle of his chest. The torso is a light blue with a low u cut around the collar bone with a maroon crystal, his Cruxis Crystal, showing in the middle. The white collar like his Mercenary outfit for his cape encases around the collar of the dark blue clothing but with a few inches of space. A round metal strip encasing behind the collar giving it a more circular shape with two gold metal buttons. The sleeves are white with a light blue strip going down from the shoulder, width of it, down to the end. The sleeves come down to the middle of the back of his hand but with his palms showing. His gloves are the same dark blue as his under armor that are fingerless.
At the back there are two long isosceles triangles that are a light blue were the point goes down to his ankles. With gray edging and one gray strip doing down the middle from the top to the point. The whole torso is covered in brown belts. Two small ones being clasped around the upper arm of the sleeves with a single belt clasp on the shoulders near the collar that wraps around under his armpits and clasp in the front with a metal button. Near the middle of the torso is a large belt that starts at the mid back of the shirt and slightly comes down to the belly button in the front creating a small v shape. At the start of the waist are three normal sized belts that come up to meet at the belly button, hidden behind the larger belt. White sleeve like pants start at the beginning of his thighs, which are covered with one belt that wraps around the top and clasps to one of the three belts on the waist with another belt that clasps under the other belt and comes up to clasp in an x, and goes down to his ankle. His shoes are ankle high dark blue shoes with the back of the shoe having a large light blue strip that goes towards the toes but stops at were the shoes curve. The shoes also have two brown belt claps, one being in the middle and the other starting at the front ankle and curves down to the heel.
History:
Kratos was born of two humans of nobility, his family was known for always breeding the best knights in Tethe' Alla. He was the third oldest in the family: his eldest brother, Platys, a man of politics, his elder sister, Nicanor, being the over protective one, and his younger brother, Alvis, the smartest of the siblings. He wasn't the greatest talker like his brother Platys and was actually quite the awkward child. He also wasn't really brave like his sister Nicanor, but he always did try his best. Then there's also the fact that he wasn't a genius like Alvis. Actually you could say he was dumber than a doorbell, but he did try his best to force some book smart into his brain at least his instincts and common sense always kept him out of trouble. Though he could at least say that his swordsmanship was good enough to beat his other two brothers, now Nicanor was a different story. Kratos idolized his sister, and actually spent more of his time around her than his other siblings. He did his best to follow after Nicanor's example and found getting an approving smile from her was better than anything.
Now his relationship with his other siblings was a bit different. Platys didn't really care for Kratos, but neither did he hate him either. Rather Platys' vocabulary and Kratos' awkwardness kept them from establishing a better relationship, but Kratos did usually expand his vocabulary thanks to Platys. Now Alvis and Kratos, oh those two did not get along very well. Alvis scorned Kratos and would often time make fun of him any chance he can. All the mockery of course would make Kratos sour and very short to Alvis. Yet they both held a very concerned nature towards each other. Like a hate and love relationship.
Kratos never really cared to learn how to fight really, and only gave a slight interest because Nicanor was a trained knight. To be like his idol, he would often train against other opponents and never really ever came out on top. Occasionally he would win, but he was really for his strategic mind. When ever there was a game of Conquest, the team that had Kratos would usually win thanks to his brilliant plans. Too bad he could never come up with the perfect plan to express his crush towards someone, but let's remember that he was and still is a bit of an awkward man when it comes to women.
As a family that dealt with knights, Kratos had high access to things that most nobility wouldn't have. Actually, he often times had free reign of Meltokio's castle. No one knew the castle as well as Kratos, and due to his many adventures through the castle, and because of his family's prestige, he eventually befriend the Princess of the Royal Family, Soleille. Having a bit of crush on the Princess he later vows to her that he'll protect her to the end! Thus making him become more intense in his training to become a knight. Due to Nicanor, with her deadly fighting abilities and strategic mind, being thought to take over the next line as the General of the Tethe' Alla army from their father. So that was a reason for Kratos lack in enthusiasm to be a knight, but slowly burned more to be Soleille's protector.
Tragically Nicanor dies when Kratos reached the age of sixteen. The news shocked Kratos to his core, even more when he heard the rumors for her death. The official report was that she died as a casualty in a battle, but the rumor was that she was executed for defying orders. Orders to kill a half-elf, something that many soldiers looked down at. Half-elves in that age were discriminated due to the fear of them. Many were not allowed to learn how to read or write, and those who did were usually forced to create new magitechnology or weapons of war. As Magitechnology was developed by a half-elf. The news of his sister's death did not do well for his family. His father was distraught at the fact that someone not in his family would take his place as the leader of the Tethe' Alla army, and his mother grew ill of grief which was odd. Considering his mother was a hard and serious woman who seemed very apathetic. It was at that time that Kratos decided that he was going to accomplish what his sister could not do. Become the next leader of the Tethe' Alla army and ultimately later he also became the protector of the Royal Family.
His whole personality as a charismatic, optimistic person soon gave away to the apathetic, stoic man that we all now know. By the age of twenty-six he was able to become the leader of the Tethe' Alla army and the Royal Family's protector, his relationship with Soleille growing. That was until he met the Yggdrasill siblings that attempted to get an audience with the Royal Family, and after an incident that allowed them to be able to meet the Royal Family. (Having broken into the castle and taken Soleille as hostage to actually accomplish the goal.) After hearing their pleas, he started to remember the many words his deceased sister would tell him. She had great ideals how she wished the world was like, the worries she had towards the war, and wondering what could happen next. Eventually hearing about the Great Kharlan tree, out of pure instinct he helped the two Yggdrasill siblings out of the capitol to a safer location. An action that resulted in his betrayal of the Royal Family and Tethe' Alla.
After talking with the two he finds out that the oldest sibling was named Martel, and her younger brother's name was Mithos. They were both half-elves that were later cast out of the elven village of Heimdall and both traveled in hopes of stopping the war as well as save the Great Kharlan Tree from withering. Agreeing on their goals, Kratos offers to accompany the two as a protector of the group. Since their combat experience was very little. Martel a healer with a few light spells, and Mithos who was mainly a mage but also had very little sword skills. As such Kratos took Mithos' swords practice under his wing and taught the half-elf on their travels. Many times in their travels they would encounter Sylvarant's renowned Generals which eventually led to meeting a certain Half-Elf by the name of Yuan Ka-Fai. Their coincidence of being in the same area was astounding as Kratos and Yuan had often times met each other on the battle field as enemies, but due to some circumstances Kratos' group teamed up with the Half-Elf to stop Thor's Hammer, known as the Mana Canon later on. You see, Kratos and the group on their travels eventually found out this plan of the Sylvaranti Generals in trying to destroy Tethe' Alla by using a large canon that consumed a lot of mana from the world to power it. In their attempts to stop it they met Yuan then who offered to help them and destroy the canon. Saying that he was partly responsible for it's creation and wanted to stop this foolishness. Since absorbing too much mana into this canon could kill the Great Kharlan tree and not to mention destroy the balance of the world and end up just decimating everything. It is only after the mission was done that they later find out that Yuan happens to be a part of the Sylvaranti Generals.
They later meet Yuan again when he is in charge of leading that attack against Tethe' Alla's capitol. They beg Yuan to stop the attack, but he remains firm as the Capitol is later reported have been burned down. Whether Yuan actually agreed with their ideals are not, he never told, but he later states that he was able to breach Meltokio's impenetrable barrier by attack through the sewers. Kratos, though morning over the fact that his hometown was destroyed, still held Yuan with some respect by using that strategy. Again at a later point the four meet again in which Yuan joins the group in stopping the war and reviving the Giant Kharlan Tree. The process resulted in being able to stop the war and being referred to as one of the four heros of the Kharlan War. During their travels to form pacts with all the summon spirits, Kratos became the seal for Origin so that no one but Mithos would have a pact with Origin. Not to mention Mithos formed a pact with Ratotask. Unfortunatlly Martel is later killed by a human companion that accompanied them in their efforts due to a reason. At the result of Martel's death, Mithos forms Cruxis at the help of Kratos and Yuan's help. Since Kratos did not have any elven blood in him to allow him to cast any magic, he had to ingest a magical rock called Aionis which gave him the ability to cast magic and wield magical swords.
Cruxis was built around the ideals of the late Martel. As the ideal remained through time, it slowly became a twisted one through the mind of a grieved young boy. As the church of Martel was established and with the system of the chosen being placed to resurrect the late Martel. Now imagined as a deity of the worlds. As a mentor of Mithos, Kratos could never find a way to correct Mithos in his mistakes, but obediently do as he wishes. Feeling responsible for the boy was the only thing keeping Kratos from cutting him down from his crazed ideal.
Before Colette was born as the chosen of mana, Kratos had met a certain woman. A woman enslaved to a Desian Ranch; but yet with a smile on her face through it all. Kratos was interested, finding that there was actually hope on the surface world. Letting her free, he had made upon himself to return her to her home town of Luin. As the time they spent together soon made him realize Mithos treachery of the worlds; he soon fell in love with her and ripped himself from the services of Mithos. Months later a baby boy is born and for three years they were on the run until that dreary night. That night when Kvar ripped the Angelis project from Anna’s hand caused her to turn into a monster. Stricken with grief, Anna begged for Kratos to kill her before Lloyd or him were to be hurt by her—sorry Noishe. Battling a little longer with the Desians and against Anna; Kratos finally kills her in desperation to save Lloyd. Kvar attack in a manner that causes Anna, Noishe, and Lloyd fall off a cliff. After defeating Kvar and his men, Kratos starts to search for his family but only finding the dead corpses of Desians, Dirk having found Lloyd and Noishe before him. Thinking his family dead he returns back to Cruxis grieving over his family and thinking that Mithos will reform the two worlds after Martel's revival.
Once having found himself after fourteen years of solitude, he is appointed the job of watching over the Chosen as he makes sure that she reaches the Tower of Salvation and complete the Chosen’s ritual as dictated that he is to watch over Sylvarant and Yuan does for Tethe' Alla. As he set of to Iselia, the place he never wanted to come back, he found the chosen and her friends fighting off a very large Desian. Once saving the Chosen’s life he was shocked to find a boy that look like his son; keeping his emotions masked he was able to ‘help’ the Chosen on her first trial. Receiving the Cruxis Crystal they set out back to Iselia where Kratos was able to properly identify ‘Lloyd Irving’ as his son; the son he thought he lost so many years ago. Not wanting to endanger Lloyd’s life; he was glad when the Chosen mentions that she doesn’t want Lloyd to get caught up into the Regeneration journey and told him a false time for them to leave. Leaving Iselia with a lighter heart that his son is safe; he nearly freaks out on the spot when in Triet they find Genis with Noishe telling them that Lloyd was captured by ‘Desians’. Quickly going with the group to save Lloyd’s life; he feels relieved to find Lloyd unharmed and almost out of the ‘Desian Ranch’ by himself. As Lloyd and Genis joins the group he makes certain to keep a good eye on Lloyd without alerting his relationship with the boy.
Coming with a few close calls with concerning with Lloyd’s well being like at the first seal when he got hit hard with the Guardian’s tail, the second seal, the third seal, and the fourth seal. Let’s just say if Kratos didn’t have such good control on his emotions he would be having a heart attack right then during the seal battles and kicking some serious ass with angelic abilities--judgment. Though he just helped out by really kicking some ass in a humanoid kind of way. During the Regeneration journey he was able to learn more about his son; unintentionally causing a somewhat bond to happen between the two. Something heregreted because of the betrayal at the Tower of Salvation. Even though he was told to kill Lloyd; he couldn’t bring himself to it. Thankfully the Renegades were able to grab him and his group to safety. From then he became determined to do something for Lloyd. Occasionally leaking some information to Lloyd’s group; he did his best to find a way so Lloyd could use the Eternal sword. Which he thought awaited his death, but in the end he was still alive. Thanks to Yuan transferring a bit of his own mana into Kratos.
Once Mithos was defeated Kratos had planned to leave with the drifting Derris Kharlan until he found himself in a new, confusing world. With only the items that he has with him, he sets off in hopes of finding something familiar.
[Sorry, I really really got into the history. Which is surprising since I usually detest histories, but I've always found Kratos' facinating.]
Personality:
Kratos is generally not perceived as the ‘nice guy’ kind of type. Always having an intimidating aura around him; people tend to stay away from him. As a man of few words; he rarely says anything more than ‘Hmph’ or ‘hn’. Though when needed be he will say something; pointing out something someone missed or explaining something. Being more of an observer than a person who interacts with other people, he tends to keep to himself. Creating that ‘untouchable’ aura or ‘touch and you die’ one. Even though he seems to be a man of only bronze and good looks; he’s a strategic kind of person. Causing him to be a very bad enemy to make. Kratos also gives off this cool and calm demeanor; hardly allowing a few spills of blood to affect him. As a man who has killed countless lives; killing a few more doesn’t exactly make him guilty.
Kratos is man with a lot experience in life; making few things actually affect him. He always seems to be in control and never panics in dire situation. Calmly taking the matters at hand; he is able to turn the situation in his favor. Though sadly with other people added to the mix; things can tend to become irritating for him. Especially when people become brash in situation and never take time to just stop and think over it for at least one more second before doing it. Though sadly that never seems to happen for him; so he tends to have to fix it himself..or ignore it. As a swordsmen, he doesn’t like people coming up from behind him. Which will automatically cause him to unsheathe his sword and ‘almost’ cut the person’s head off. He also doesn’t like tomatoes, for many reasons. One they taste horrible, two they smell horrible, and three he’s allergic to them. Having actually eaten a tomato; he almost died of his airway closing up on him because of the swelling. Which has made him always carry a medicine for the allergic reaction; that way if he accidently comes into contact to it, he can quell the swelling.
Kratos has been called many things; a traitor, a bastard, a knight, a human, and a lost soul. But accepting the title of Father is something he’s still realizing. Never would he expect Lloyd to call him father or dad, but content with his son being alive and happy. You could say that Kratos is an unfit parent who would do shameless things for his son. He wouldn’t deny that since it is true. He hardly remembers what it was like to raise Lloyd when he was three, but trying to raise a teen is just unbelievable. Especially when they are their pissy moods and completely hate the parent’s guts. Nevertheless, he cares deeply about Lloyd, the way a father should, but perhaps a little more extreme than need be. Hey, he’s learning… after the few kills .. or … dozen.
Kratos isn’t the kind of guy that you want to piss off really. He may have a good control on his anger, but if you really push him he goes all out. A few things to never talk to him about: 1. His sex life, 2. His family past, 3. Talk nuts about said family, 4. Look at Lloyd the wrong way, and 5. Anything that is stupid and shouldn’t really be said. He has been known to bash people’s head into a log, you can even ask Zelos Wilder.

Sample RP:
Puffs of dirt clouds hover around the purple boots that trudge along the sand. With a sudden halt, the figure hunches over with his hands leaning on his knees. Wine colored eyes glaring along the barren wasteland as much as his auburn hair would allow him. Sweat from his body has caused the gravity defying hair to cling to his face and the humidity in the area caused it to poof out even more. Random strands of hair just sticking up in different directions that after so many times trying to smooth it down, the Seraphim just gave up in the end. His shoulders move up and down in labored breathing as the scorching heat and long walks had finally made some toll on the 4,000 year old man. He’s ready to retire right about now.
Glancing to the right of him, he spies a rather large rock before straightening and walking slowly towards it. Plopping down with a heavy sigh, he yanks off a boot and pours the small amounts of sand that had accumulated in it back into the huge sandbox. Pulling the shoe back onto his foot, he repeats the process once more for the other foot. Having done that, he slumps with his forearms on his thighs with the scorching sun glaring down at his back. His head droops down to allow his hair to cover his eyes from the sun, slightly looking up to look at the occasional rock scattered with the sand.
He wasn’t sure how long he had been walking in this desert, but he does remember starting just as the sun was starting to climb higher into the sky. By now, glimpsing at the sun for a second, looks to be at its highest peak just about to slowly descend. It wasn’t good to be walking around at this time, but even worse at night where anything dangerous comes out. Where there’s only the moon to make your way about and the clenching cold grasping at your exposed skin. Even then, he can’t wait for twilight to approach before he sets off once more, he’s too anxious to wait.
After a few good minutes of resting, which seem good to someone like him anyway, he gets up once more to walk across this desolated wasteland. Pumping his fist in glee at it groaning at his misfortune, he looks around the area for something to take his mind off the boring landscape. After 4,000 years worth of experience, he’s learned ways to keep his usual diminishing interest. Of course there is no person to help keep his interest in a simple game, and after a few minutes of recollection on how he usually quelled these boredoms, he is starting to miss that blue haired half-elf. Though he really despised the man’s word games and habit of always punching anything in reach when frustrated. He did wish there was something to…hello.
Stopping abruptly to look at the speck of red in the distance, a good 100 yards away, he focuses on the object with his angelic eyes. Seeing a top of brown, then middle color of red, and then blue and red bottoms, a smile splays on the man’s face before suffocating it with a little slight chance it might not be what he’s thinking. Walking quickly he eventually makes some distance between him and the figure as he places a gentle hand on the youth’s shoulder.
”Lloyd..” Kratos says cooly, a small smile forming on the older man’s face at the sight of the young boy. His eyes doing a quick check that he wasn’t injured in any way as his hand slides off back to his sides. Clearing his throat, his smile returns to the usual frown as he continuously reminds himself that he shouldn’t be so hopeful on a warm welcoming. Considering the fact that he looked like crap with his hair sticking in random directions and his face, as well as the sand hiding itself in noticeable and not so noticeable places.
Crossing his hands over his chest, he waits patiently for the no doubt large explosion from the boy. Questions and exclamations, something that isn’t new with the teenager.
